If not abolished

Chapter 360 The meeting between monarch and minister

"Your Highness, think about it. Because we have lived a second life, the fate of many people has actually changed. I believe that Lord Yu's subsequent achievements are inseparable from his experience. If you had reused him in advance, what if you changed Lord Yu's life trajectory?" Hu Shanxiang expressed her concerns.

"What you said makes sense. He is still the same as before, but I still want to meet him in advance. This shouldn't change anything, right? I just want to thank him, not do anything else..." Zhu Zhanji pondered for a long time and carefully considered Hu Shanxiang's words. If he died young again like in his previous life, then the country would still be in doubt with a young ruler, and it would inevitably be invaded by foreign enemies. If such a situation happened again, without Yu Qian, I'm afraid the Ming Dynasty would be really over.

"I know how Your Highness feels now. I will support you no matter what decision you make, but you must think it through carefully." Hu Shanxiang knew that she had no ability and could not give Zhu Zhanji any good advice. All she relied on was her knowledge of the direction of history.

"You're right. I was so excited that I almost ruined the matter. Thank you, Shanxiang. I'm glad you're by my side." Zhu Zhanji didn't like the wife that the emperor had temporarily replaced for him, so he also disliked Hu Shanxiang. So even though he knew in his previous life that what Hu Shanxiang said was right and the suggestions she gave were all considered, he deliberately did the opposite to express his disgust. Now he thinks he was really naive.

"Then will Your Highness go to see Master Yu?"

"I still want to go and take a look, just take a look, without getting involved in anything."

"Well, then, please go down."

"I was originally planning to let him come into the palace, but since you said so, I'll go out of the palace to meet him." Zhu Zhanji's desire to enter the palace was too conspicuous. If someone with ulterior motives knew about it, they would think he had chosen a side.

"Okay, whatever your highness wishes."

After Zhu Zhanji came out from Hu Shanxiang, he left the palace. Wu Cheng had already told him that Yu Qian had been found.

"Your Highness, that's the one. This Lord Yu is not a smooth person at all. Others would have already made good connections and found a good job for themselves, and would have left the capital or taken up a post long ago. If not for this, would this servant still be looking for someone else?"

"He is just like that, let him be. Let him wait for me in the teahouse in front." Zhu Zhanji glanced at his figure in the carriage, and it was still the same as he remembered.

"Yes." Wu Cheng went to call someone personally and walked over to stop him.

"Who are you?" Yu Qian was surprised.

"You don't need to know who I am. My host invites you to the teahouse in front for a chat." Wu Cheng made a gesture of invitation.

"I don't have any reward money. What does your master want to see me for?" Yu Qian thought that it was another nobleman from the capital who came to win them over. He had encountered this several times in the past few days.

"My master just wants to meet you, he won't do anything, don't worry."

Yu Qian had directly refused this before, but today he wanted to meet her for the first time.

"You lead the way."

After a while, the two of them arrived at Zhu Zhanji's private room.

"Your Highness, the people have been brought here." Wu Cheng said outside.

"Come in." Zhu Zhanji responded from inside.

Yu Qian's heart suddenly started beating fast. Your Highness, as expected, if I had known earlier, you wouldn't have come. Your Highness the Prince of Zhao has been looking for someone every day these days.

"Please, sir."

If the enemy comes, we will fight him; if the water comes, we will block it with earth. Yu Qian went in with a fearless attitude. If he couldn't win, he would rather offend him.

"Your Highness, I am Yu Qian's subordinate." Yu Qian didn't even raise his head.

"You didn't even see who I am. Raise your head. Are you a man who dares not to face others?"

"Your Highness..." Yu Qian raised his head after saying this. Hey, why is he so young? "Your Highness is?"

"Zhu Zhanji, who do you think I am, Lord Yu?"

"Your Highness, you..."

"My Lord must be wondering what I want to do with you today?"

"Yes."

"Sir Yu, I am here today to thank you. Please accept my greetings." Zhu Zhanji stood up and bowed to him.

"Your Highness, how can this be possible?" Yu Qian was both flustered and confused.

"You don't need to ask why, sir. Anyway, you have done me a favor, and you have done me a favor. You deserve it."
